Maui Brewing Co. Begins Limited Release of Waimea Red Ale

Maui Brewing Company (Kihei, Hawaii) has officially announced that Waimea Red Ale is hitting shelves and taps now as the brewery’s third limited release of 2018.

With a name inspired by its featured hops and “also the Hawaiian word for the reddish water of rivers running through the red dirt of the islands”, Waimea Red Ale “boasts a great aromatic profile of tangelo, citrus, and pine” sourced from those New Zealand-grown Waimea hops. This American-style Red Ale was first brewed in May of 2017, but this release of Waimea Red Ale (6.5% ABV, 50 IBUS) marks the first time that it is available in cans.

Waimea Red Ale is rolling out now and will be available for a limited time in 6-packs of 12 oz. cans and on draft. You can expect to find this Limited Release at select craft beer establishments located in Florida, Hawaii, and throughout the rest of Maui Brewing Company’s distribution footprint. Prost!
